Well sounds like u guys had a pretty crazy week! glad everyone is ok :) haha for malo and her devotional thing she could use first nephi chapter 8. ok so for the q's... im doing just fine still. ha and ya max isnt in my mission :( so that kinda sucks. OK so for tuesday we had a pretty heated district meeting. haha the sisters instructed and had this brilliant idea to pass out sheets of paper and write a persons name who they thought needed to work on a christ like attribute and which attribute that was. ha well what happened was mostly everyone put someone in that room and a few people even put their companions. ha it was pretty bad... but funny! ha the spirit pretty much was annialated by that time. haha After, we met with rhoda and started the plan of salvation with her. shes doing freakin awesome! We then met with our headquarters referral, Enoch. we started lesson 1 with him. it went pretty good. We then went out to teach aboagyewaa. We actually had an awesome lesson with her and it was our best one ever with her for sure. she is also doing awesome! (wait till u hear what happend with her next). We taught faith in Jesus Christ and repentance. 


On wednesday we had our mission conference thing with the whole mission! it was the freakin best! Of course we got to meet pres and sis holmes, but it was also sweet to see the whole mission together and see everyone, like hopkins! It was mostly a get to know the new office couple and president and his wife, but president did do a little instruction on how important it is to be teaching future leaders and people who speak english! i agree! They seem awesome and im really excited to see whats in store for us! We also have a new address for everyone to send everything:

Elder Slade
Ghana Kumasi Mission
PMB KS 16333
Kumasi Ghana

So if u could update that wherever, it would be much appreciated:) And hopefully u havent forgotten about the stuff i have been asking for the last few weeks... thanks! ON thursday we went out teaching with iseh. he is freakin awesome! he is becomng my most powerful convert for sure! he even gave a talk in sacrament meeting a couple weeks ago! he is the only one that comes everyweek too. Anyways, he has TONS of friends and i think hes willing to let us teach them with him, which would just be unreal so we r pretty excited for that! After, we went out to Aboagyewaa's again, and.... drum roll.... it was awesome again! we gave her a baptisimal date and she even accepted it! ha crazy stuff! shell be baptized the 22nd! We never thought that we would see this day at all! ha We then ended the day seeing rhoda and filling out her baptisimal record and going over the baptisimal questions with her. She did awesome of course. 


On friday we first had rhodas interview. Elder Nathan did it and she did great! We then went to teach enoch but in the middle of our lesson were interrupted by an "emergency." The stupid handyman guy cooper told us that the electrric company was coming to repair our meter any second (its been broken for a month and a half). ... its still not fixed. We then had a very hectic lesson with Akos. We tried to teach her at work but everytime we say the opening prayer people come flooding in. Its really annoying! so the lesson didnt go that well... We then had such a sweet lesson with alfred. We taught him faith and repentance. i think that it was the best elder evbuomwam and i have ever taught together. it was powerful. He then promised to come to church and then failed us... ugh so frustrating sometimes!!! We then had a strange lesson with an innactive member of 15 yrs! which is crazy for here. It was weird because he still had a powerful testimony of everything but he wouldnt tell us why he left. so well have to work on him. 


On saturday we had a service project weeding at the place we weeded a few weeks ago past abuakwa. It was sweet but way hard! ha we freakin weeded for 6 hrs! We only saw one snake this time but i found a whole bunch of sweet frogs that looked like the colorful poison dart looking ones! After, they fed us empasy and kontumbre stew! loved it! ON our way home a member called us and wanted us to help him move. so we helped him move for the rest of the day! it was an awesome day of just straight service! So yesterday was sweet. we had a baptism! our first in a while. Rhoda was baptized by her member friend, bro. Albert. it was a sweet deal. We then went out teaching with sister paulina. it went well :) Well i guess thats it. thanks so much for all ur support! 2 yrs is a loooong time im coming to realize! ha OK well i love u all so dang much!
